Creator Leila Gerstein spoke to The Hollywood Reporter recently about broadening the world. "Starting in episode two, we are expanding our town quite a bit," she said. "We have a slew of recurring characters, people that we need to hang out in the local bar/clamhouse/roadhouse, which is called the Rammer Jammer. There is a waitress named Shelly and we meet a couple of belles in Lemon's world."
Hart of Dixie, executive produced by Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage, launched to 1.8 million total viewers and a 0.8 rating on Monday night following the duo's Gossip Girl.
Lee is repped by Paradigm.
